  1. I’m glad you touched briefly on video, but the truth is that some businesses are successfully getting into “audio blogging” through podcasting. With the right setup it could even be quicker than blogging and sets you up as an expert. This doesn’t work in every industry, and you can’t be overly commercial about it, but in my field, this has actually helped expand our base. Plus, you can have “guests” which is an excellent networking opportunity.
    The only big downside of podcasting is lack of SEO unless you arrange to have them transcribed.

  2. The beauty of blogging is that it causes people to see you as an authority on the matters that you discuss in your blog. This is based on a few surveys that I did of visitors to my site.

  3. This is a great idea to market your business online without investing any kind of money. You just have to set up your blog on your favourite blogging service as mentioned in the above article.
    I just set up my blog at wordpress.com as I don’t have my own website. It provides really great interface to connect with your users.
    Thanks for the tips!
